Its Terrible Effects on the Physical Sys.
TEN of the Young.

Its Terrible Effects the Physical sys-
tenn of the Young.
The terrible effect of tobacco on the
system Of young persons is indicated
in many significant ways. After ex-
haustive examination by both the
French and the German Governments,
they have become satisfied that as a
matter of patriotism, politics and
economy, it is necessary for them to
suppress juvenile use of tobacco. This
they do vigorously, but not as a ques-
ton of moral reform. How much
more, then, should we grapple with
the evil!
Let us remember that investigation
of court record showed that of 700
male convicts in an American prison,
600 hundred were there for crimes
committed under influence of liquor,
and that five hundred of that 600 tes-
titled that use of tobacco was the be-
ginning of their Incorporate habit.
General Grant died from tobacco
cancer, and Colfax from heart dis
ease induced by tobacco. A large num-
Der of the deaths from heart-disease
are from what honest and able ply
sicians pronounce tobacco hearts,
During the last few years the rejec-
ton of young men by life insurance
companies, because of unfitness from
tobacco heart-disease, is not infreqent.
The London Lancet says: mo
smoker can be well man."
As q question of ''heredity," very
many of the terrible nervous diseases of
women spring from tobacco habits of
their fathers.
Few fathers, even among those who
smoke, would be willing to have their
boys smoke. Yet, who can expect a
boy not to smoke who has the smoking
example of father or teacher before
| him?
Fire hardly spreads in prairie grass
so fast as the habit Of smoking among
small boys in the last five years
1t is high time that in States where
there is law against selling tobacco to
boys, q lot of those guilty of SO doing
be vigorously punished. Let law and
order societies, pushed on by the W.
c. I. u, make themselves felt by the
enemy, so as to be remembered.
In States where there are no such
laws, let the same forces apply to Sc
curing them, and then having them put
through.
The man who sells boy tobacco, or.
by example helps him get the habit Of
using it, is an enemy to the race.
After twenty-five years use of to-
bacco, the writer discontinued it,
chiefly because he dare not run the
risk of setting a bancful example to.
boys. He was SO attached to the vile
stuff that it's Infatuation would have

HOW MIRRORS ARE MADE.
How Rough Pieces of Plate Glass Are
Made Into Gorgeous Mirrors.

How Rough Pieces of Plate Glass Are
Made Into Gorgeous Mirrors.
One of the factories in Chicago EN-
ploys some one hundred and fifty men
and boys, and its spacious four floors
present an interesting series of sights
to the visitors whose nerves are steel
and tympani proof against splitting.
On the first floor he will see huge stacks
and piles of glass in assorted sizes,
ranging from sixteen feet by seven
squares down to the smallest ovals for
mirrors. These are all polished, some
being run over huge felt-covered wheels
kept powdered with rouge, and the
larger sheets scrubbed by sweating
toilers with hand blocks covered with
felt like a printers proof planer in
rouge. After the glass is thoroughly
polished it is taken up to the next
floor, where it is laid on tables and cut
into the sizes ordered. 1t then passes
into the hands Of the jewellers, who,
with sand and water and large grind
stones, artistically finish the edges of
the glass. 1t takes trip upward
again, to another floor, and is once
more put through polishing process
to remove any scratches or blemishes
that may be on the glass. After
| every spot or scratch, no mat
ter how minute, has been re-
moved, careful hands convey the now
beautiful and sparkling glass to the room
where it goes through the final process
the silvering. Huge tables of cast iron
or stone, made like billiard tables, with
raised edges, are used in the silvering
room. These tables are of great
strength and solidity, and all around
the edge is a drain, for the superhuous
mercury is poured over the tables in
quantities sufficient to float the glass,
which, after being tinfoiled, is gently
and carefully pushed across the table
containing the mercury. Great care
must be used to prevent blemishes, the
least speck of dust being ruinous to the
mirror. Mercury, like molten lead. is
always covered with a dirty-looking
scum which can not be removed by
skimming. The least bit of this scum
would spoil the mirror, so the difficulty
is obviated by showing the scum along
with the edge of the glass. After sue
cessfully floating the glass on the mer-
curry, wooden cloth is spread over the
whole surface and square iron weights
are applied until the whole presents a
a compact mass OF iron, two or three
pounds to the square inch. After this
pressure has been confined for ten OF
twelve hours, the weights are removed
and the glass placed upon another
table of wood with q slightly inclined
top. The inclination is gradually in
creased until the unamalgamated quick
silver has drained away and only the
perfect ANAL gam remains. coating the
glass and perfectly adhercnt. This
ends the process, and the erstwhile
rough piece of plate glass energies
from the silvering room a gorgeous
mirror. - Western Manufacturer.

THE SAFE PATH.

The evening shades were falling,
The day was almost done
And f1ocks and herds were driven homa
At setting OF the sun.
While lingering in the grassy lane,
Two children passed us by;
We wondered that they walked so late,
And asked the reason why.
'And whittier are you bound,' we said,
so near the close of day?
The night is coming, little ones,
And you may lose your way"
Their faces wore no trace of fear,
But seemed OF JOY to tell
40, we are going home they said,
"And know the way quite well.
''This narrow path wen follow on,
! 1t pass S by the mill;
And then our fathers house is near,
Beyond the rising HILL
So on life's journey may their feet
Not turn aside nor stray,
But safely keep the homeward path,
And never miss the way.

Whipped Potatoes. Instead of mash
ingjn the ordinary way, whip with q
fork until light and dry; an ordinary
carving fork is best. Then whip in q
little melted butter, some milk, and salt
to taste, whipping rapidly until creamy.
Pile as lightly and irregularly as you
can on a hot dish. Another way of pre-
pairing potato is to mash and place in
